My Zenki S14 Overhaul

Instagram name is neil_thelowlife

cheers lads thread is bit all over the place but its the basic build up of the car, have loads of little bits i need to get photos of,

more parts

tomei turbo


Greddy turbo timer, i had already bought a apexi turbo timer but i rather the look of the greddy one


have a partshopmax downpipe but haven't got any pictures, its a really cool downpipe, elbow and downpipe are one piece and has a flexi built in too, also built for low cars as the frame rail of the car hangs lower than the downpipe itself

needed to replace the front balljoints and track rod ends, so got new balljoints from driftworks and got some tein rods and ends too, went to replace the track rods but found that my steering rack is leaking so need a new one off them before i can get all these fitted


decided it would be a good time to tuck the dreaded arch loom, wanted to do a really neat job, so i cut the loom and drilled a new hole in the arch on front of the door, then used a grommet from the back of a headlight to make a new seal, pulled the loom thru the hole and soldered it all back together to get this, its a bit of over kill but looks factory

on the wheel side of things, i went all lifestyler and shit, a lot of people won't like it but running two different sets

fronts are Work xd9 18x10 et18 in matte black




rears are work termist 18x11.5 et-6, painted in gloss black lips and matte black centres



waiting on my new genuine stickers to arrive from workwheelsusa

have my bride seats from my old ek9 to go in the s14



car was also undersealed




and pretty much this is how it will sit when its all done, few more bits to do but needed some motivation so i put the panels and wheels on and set the proper height on the coilovers and adjusted camber. Still have loads of bits i want to do but i needed to see it








been some change, i will sort out this build thread when i get a chance its a mess and will try keep it updated from now on

wow fair play man i like everything about it, tried to buy this car at one stage aswell,

Keep up the good work looking forward to seeing more updates from this

EDIT also what brand is the wing and where did you buy it

[Tonto]

kenny the wing is homemade, well the blade is from mcn (dmac) and i made a template for the legs and got them made from aluminium then i made some brackets from steel, so its a half homemade one, basically looks like a big country labs spoiler

[kenny046]

Fair play, looks really well thinking of that style of wing for my own car when it arrives
